Hello, is this available in Canada?

[@cybexglobal]

@@yaodominique972 Hi Yao! Thanks for your interest. We do not currently offer any of our Pallas line seats in Canada. Keep an eye on our social media channels though, and you will be the first to know as soon as they are :)

According to the manual "The headrest must be adjusted so that max. 2cm (ca. two finger‘s width) or less remains free between the child’s shoulder and the headrest." However, that is nearly impossible for children at 9 months (if he/she does not have basketball player's genes). My 9m-boy is 10 kg and 73 cm tall and when I put him on seat there are nearly 4-5 cm gap between headrest and his shoulders even I adjusted headrest to minimum level. So it seems headrest protectors will not work in this condition. Besides, impact shield is also high and therefore it hits his mouth :/ Additionally, the gap between impact shield and car seat seems so narrow for a little human body and my boy seems really tightened even if I adjust it. So, after spending lots of money I thought that it really ready to use for my child but I have faced that kind of design problems. I have searched for solution to check if I made something wrong but I found nothing. I am not really sure about this car seat is designed for 9 months-9 kg children.

[@scottnye3831]

your child is clearly too small for this seat. not all children grow at the same rate, so the size and age guide is just that - a guide. You should have tested the seat before buying. once your boy is bigger the seat will be fine. plus the child should be rear facing until 15 months under EU i-size regulations so this seat should not really be used before this piint (although of course regulations might be different outside of the EU).

[@u.c.v]

Scott Nye Yes it is clear that he is so small. I have contact dealer of Cybex in Turkey and they said ideal height is 74-75 cm for starting usage. About i-size regulation, yes it is suggested to place small children backwards but if that was a strict rule, these seats had to be forbidden to be suggested as an option for children who are smaller than 105 cm in EU (I bought my seat from Germany). So, i-size is not an obligation, as far as I know, it is just a “better” option.

[@sofiasimoncelli8069]

It is nearly impossible to put on the seatbelt on the side of the cybex if you place it on the rear seat. I always have to enter the car and he moans bcs he feels the pressure of my body trying to put on the belt. The girl in the tutorial stays IN FRONT OF THE CYBEX. This cannot happen in whatever car!

good morning. to ask you. in this seat the child up to 2 years old is turned upside down and after 2 we put it in front; or is its orientation only to be forward?

[@cybexglobal]

Good morning! The Pallas S-fix can only be used forward-facing, and it is suitable from 9kg to 36kg.

[@natooz4116]

@@cybexglobal but does it not affect his safety because the seat is in front?

[@cybexglobal]

@@natooz4116 CYBEX recommends traveling in rear-facing car seats for as long as possible ideally up to the age of 4. In rear-facing position, the energy of a frontal collision is distributed evenly over the large area of the seat and the sensitive body areas of the child are perfectly protected. But sometimes, there are reasons that require toddlers to be switched to a forward-facing car seat, for example, a smaller or two-door vehicle. In these cases, CYBEX’ forward-facing car seats equipped with an adjustable patented impact shield are the reliable alternative to offer a high degree of protection without confining the child.

When can you put the front thing out? My daughter hates it being so tight, she is 18 months.

[@cybexglobal]

Hi Essine! You can remove the impact shield once your daughter reaches at least 15kg. When you are securing her with it, you should be able to get your fingers between her midsection and the impact shield. Let us know if you need anything else. Kind regards, CYBEX Social Media Team

[@dalibor123]

Doesn't go the seat belt through the red "hook" at the end? At 3.27s of video...

[@cybexglobal]

Hey Dalibor! Thanks for getting in touch. Those are the belt routings for the vehicle seat belt. You do not use them until you switch the seat into the group 2/3 configuration by removing the base and the impact shield. Hope this clarifies things.

[@stajebreovo7988]

Is there a minimum height for the child to be able to safely use the s fix?

[@cybexglobal]

Hi Staje! The Pallas S-fix is suitable from 9kg to 36kg. When sitting in the seat, the bottom of the headrest should be no more than 2cm from the top of the shoulders. Let us know if you need anything else. Kind Regards, CYBEX Social Media Team

[@Sheah11]

Thank you so much for replying back!

[@sofiasimoncelli8069]

My boy is 18 months. He risked and still risks to hit his teeth on the impact shield. What's more, the impact shield seems to be too small for my baby: his legs doesn't almost fit under it, and his body is under pressure if I put him on whit his Jacket on (do you rally think we undress our children everytime we use the car?). Moreover even with the correct seatbelt, he pushes away the impact shield and walks free into the car! This is absolutely UNSAFE! I sometimes have to stop the car in the middle of the trip to put my baby inside the cybex again. I HAVE TO WAIT FOR 18KG TO TAKE OFF THE SHIELD but this doesn t seem useful even at 13 kg. I really regret to have bought this product.

[@Ringsofice]

Same here! Wouldn’t have bought it if I had known this earlier ! I really regret it!

There's a button on the impact shield to make it looser

Hi Christine! Thanks for getting in touch. The Pallas S-fix comes with the base attached :)

[@kenation]

My child is about 19kg, can I remain the "impact shield"? I think he is thin enough to fit the space.

[@cybexglobal]

Hi Ken! 18kg is the max weight for the impact shield and the base. At this point you should remove both and use the seat in the group 2/3 configuration.

[@desiworldbdcho6451]

Can I use this car seat in the USA?

[@cybexglobal]

Hi! Our Pallas S-fix is certified according to European Norms, which differs from the US norms. Therefore, we would not advise you to use this car seat in US. Please check our available car seats for the US Market on cybex-online.com/us! Best, CYBEX.

[@Sheah11]

I purchased the axissfix and I live in the USA. It's a 5 point harness car seat that turns a full 360 degrees. I ordered it because I have a lot of health problems and the seat you never have to take out. Just a switch of a button and it turns from rear facing to forward facing. I believe here in the US we have to have a 5 point harness system. It doesn't have to have the chest clip which ultimately is one more step you have to take in case of an accident to get your child out so I find chest clips dangerous imo especially if not placed right on the child. I wish I could get this seat for my 4 year old.

Sorry, this seat make alzo a coffe, but it doesn't recline?? 😳 Incredible. It's very very important!

[@FoxfireGreen]

Securing the seat using the seatbelt seems very impractical if you imagine having a wiggling unenthused toddler in the seat... at one point the girl in the video would actually put the seatbelt across the child's forehead and in the narrow space of the car it seems very difficult to secure... I was really excited about this seat until I saw the seatbelt securing system demonstration. And does the seat wobble when placing the child in it, since it's not secured in advance? What are your customer's experiences on this?

[@cybexglobal]

Hello, thanks for reaching out! We have several different styles of the seat and this particular one can be used with or without Isofix which gives parents the opportunity to use it in older vehicles. Let us know if you need anything else. Kind regards, CYBEX Social Media Team

What is the difference of m fix and s fix?

[@cybexglobal]

Hi! The Pallas S-Fix, much like the Pallas M-fix, is a Group 1/2/3 seat designed for children weighing at least 9 kg to a maximum of 36 kg. The child is protected by an adjustable impact shield. For children weighing at least 18 kg, both seats can be converted into a Group 2/3 seat from the CYBEX Solution family in just a few simple steps. Both the Pallas M-Fix and the Pallas S-Fix are ISOFIX Connect seats. They are fitted with fold-away connectors, making them compatible with vehicles without the ISOFIX system as well. Both car seats are designed with a 3-position reclining headrest. They are also equipped with a base that can be easily adjusted with just one hand, so that the seat can be positioned in a comfortable recline function. The main difference between both seats lies in their design. The Pallas S-fix follows a new design DNA and is 15% more spacious than the Pallas M-Fix due to material adjustments in the interior of the seat. At the same time, the Pallas S-Fix is 10% narrower than the Pallas M-Fix with regards to the external dimensions of the seat. Other safety features include the Linear Side-impact Protection System (L.S.P.) which both car seats are equipped with, but which has been further optimized in case of the Pallas S-fix. For any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us again. Best, CYBEX

[@jennielamouree]

Did you check that you haven’t got it to close to the body? Once you put the seat belt on give it a wiggle and check you can put your fingers behind it. This one slides to adjust with the button on the front. Check you haven’t pushed it to close to the body 👍🏽The impact shield I have found to be extremely useful. I have used one for all 3 of my children because they have long legs, and rear facing after a while just squashed their legs. Taking into consideration the risk with a 5 point harness used on a child under 4, facing front, the impact shield is a great alternative so much safer. I have this one, and the Kiddy seat too. Hope this info is helpful to you
